Chelsea will be looking to keep themselves in title contention when they take on Norwich City at Stamford Bridge on Sunday afternoon. Here’s our predicted line-up.

Jose Mourinho is expected to make some changes from the side that lost 3-1 to Atletico Madrid in the Champions League on Wednesday night.

Petr Cech is still out with a shoulder injury so Mark Schwarzer will remain in goal but Nemanja Matic is almost certain to return to the side having been ineligible in midweek.

Ramires is still suspended so Frank Lampard could return after being banned in Europe while Andre Schurrle is likely to start in attack having come off the bench against Atletico.

John Terry came through the ninety minutes unscathed after an ankle knock so he should be okay to continue in defence, but there have been suggestions Eden Hazard could be dropped after Mourinho criticised the attacker in his press conference on Friday afternoon. However, with Chelsea still having an outside chance of winning the league, we don’t think the Portuguese coach will leave out his star man for this one.

Mohamed Salah could replace Willian in attack after being ineligible in midweek while Samuel Eto’o is favourite to start up front despite giving away the crucial penalty that saw Madrid take a 2-1 lead on Wednesday.

Here’s the side we think Mourinho will select:
